I have a motherboard I need to ship and I don't feel like buying a box. At least not from the post office.

Anyone got one? just needs to fit a (xbox) motherboard about 10"x10"x4"

you know you can actually go to the DHL website and request boxes for free in any size. i have some friends at MSU that ordered a ton of boxes and made a couch out of them. not that comfortable but its a good story/centerpiece

If you're shipping Priority Mail, boxes from the post office are free.

Check the cardboard depository behind Subway; there's usually some good boxes in there around that size.

we've a lot of boxes here, not sure what all sizes, but with 3 essentially new computers built in the past year, we've got a lot of them.

The USPS Flat Rate Boxes are awesome. They boxes are free, and you get Priority shipping at the 1-lb rate for as much stuff as you can cram in the box. They also have padded envelopes for roundish things, but the boxes are cooler.

Seriously...Buy a bunch of $4.35 stamps, use Carrier Pickup and never go to the post office again.
